The following dreck appeared in the opinion section of the July 2nd, 2013 edition of The Miami Herald :

"With the Supreme Courts historic rulings on DOMA and Proposition 8, as well as the generational shift on civil marriage equality, it is clear that same-sex marriage will one day be a reality in Florida and the rest of the nation. Its just a question of time.

Until then, religious justifications and definitions of marriage will continue to be used in opposition to civil same-sex marriage. Less than 50 years ago, similar religious and moral justifications for prohibiting civil interracial marriage were rejected because marriage equality is not a religious issue.

The 1967 Loving decision on interracial marriage, the civil marriage equality laws that exist in 13 states and last weeks Supreme Court rulings do not attempt to compel religious groups to change their definitions of marriage. Before the high courts rulings, many religious groups already supported same-sex marriage, and no court order was needed for them to do so.

To preserve religious liberty in America, no civil law, including marriage, should be defined by religious law. The Founding Fathers wisely understood the dangers of basing civil law on religion. They separated government and religion in the First Amendment. Ultimately, the Constitutions requirement for equal protection, regardless of minority status or moral rejection, will result in civil marriage equality for all.

But, before I rip this Holzhauer dingbat a new one, I have to let you in on a little secret: I'm Jewish. I cry every time I watch Schindler's List, I support Israel's right to whup on Jihadis whenever they feel like it, and I call my mother on a regular basis, no matter how much guilt is thrown my way. I was born a Jew, I'll spend the rest of my days on God's green and cooling earth as a Jew, and I'll die as a Jew. No, I'm not caving to political correctness (like say, Rick Scott did during the Zimmerman fiasco. Can't wait for the primary, Ricky!), I'm just heading the Cultural Marxists off at the pass.

Ladies and gentlemen, the above intellectual diarrhea isn't just Orwellian Doublethink on steroids, it's an insidious attack on Judaism and religious, actual Jews. What Gauleiter Holzhauer wants us to do is forget our religious upbringings (and to be fair to my Christian brothers and sisters, the role that Christianity played in the Founding of the United States)....all in the name of protecting religious liberty.

This is as revolting as it gets, friends. This is Warsaw Ghetto snitch low. Yep, I said it, and I'm not taking back, nor am I "evolving" on this issue.

If the ADL actually cared about defending Judaism, Abe Foxman (the Lib in Chief of the All Democrats League) would have stood up and said, "The ADL cannot, in good conscience, support any legislation, any court decision, or any ballot initiative that would legalize gay marriage or change the definition of marriage. It's against the religious and cultural beliefs we strive so hard to defend." We didn't get that from Abie-Baby, did we ? Instead, we get one of his flunkies applauding the destruction of religion in the United States, just like any other junkie wasting their days posting meaningless comments at Media Bladders or Moveon.dork.

There is absolutely no guarantee that rabbis, pastors, and priests won't be forced to perform homosexual "marriages". (No, I didn't forget the Inspiration of Terrorists World Wide. This won't apply to them. They have powerful friends in the Bloated Beast we call "the government", don'tcha know.) And it won't stop there, because once the Federal Leviathan dips its big, fat snout into something, it never stops. Pretty soon, places of worship will be compelled to accept homosexuals as rabbis, pastors, and priests. Then, there will be checks to make sure that there is enough "diversity" in the congregations, and you can bet your last fiat dollar that tons of regulations will follow as well, ranging from what temperature the Holy Water can be to whether or not you can have your infant son circumcised.

The ADL, as alleged defenders of Judaism, should know first hand why this is a terrible idea. After all, the Nazis interfered with religion and this interference helped bring about the Holocaust. Granted, the NSDAP wasn't into Adam marrying Steve, but they understood how controlling and silencing religious institutions and persons were vital to creating the monstrosity that was the Third Reich.

And yet, there they are, whistling past the graveyard, right ?

Wrong.

The above horse poop is another example of the ADL's hatred of religious Jews. The ADL despises Jews who are actually Jewish. (And my Christian brothers and sisters, don't think you're of the hook. They hate you too.) When Barack Hussein Obama thought it was a really swell idea to shrink Israel down to the indefensible 1967 borders, the ADL put out a lukewarm statement that wasn't even a slap on the wrist. When the former Barry Soetero appointed Upchuck Hagel to turn the Department of Defense into the Department of Defenselessness, Abe Foxman barely looked up from his bagel and lox. When New York Jets bench warmer Oday Aboushi was outed as an Islamonazi, the ADL defended him as if their miserable little lives depended on it. And no, I'm not holding my breath waiting for the ADL to defend the pro-Israel groups that were illegally targeted by the Infernal Revenue Service, either. (No, not a typo.)

Here's the bottom line, gang. Identity politics are nothing more than leftist nonsense. Phony baloney ethnic front groups are nothing more leftist nonsense piled on leftist lies. They don't speak for minorities, only the progressivik movement. Granted, I'm picking at the ADL because I'm Jewish and these collaborators claim to speak on my behalf, but let's face it, blacks should be picking at the NAACP (that has yet to to do a thing to fight for school vouchers so poor black parents can pull their kids out of union infested, failing public schools) and Hispanics should rail against La Raza (which is supporting the Rubio/Schumer amnesty pile of crap that will help put Americans of Latino descent out of work.)

Aren't we better than this, folks ? Do we really need these race hustlers constantly stirring the pot ? I'm gonna go out on a limb and say "absolutely not". Too bad not enough of my fellow minorities feel the same way.

Before, they tried make Orthodox Jews get out of their neighborhoods, ban the ritual slaughter of animals for kosher consumption, sued their schools, and tried to stop the public practice of Judaic rituals on Government property like city hall.

There is no such thing as marriage equality.
Brothers and sister can not marry
Cousins may not marry
2 men may not marry 1 woman
3 women may not marry 2 men
A 13 year old and a 11 year old may not marry
A 23 year old may not marry a 12 year old.
GET THE PICTURE ?
There is no such thing as marriage equality. There can not be. It is a political payback to the homosexuals for votes pure and simple.

The ADL will probably editorialize against Mashiach comes for "mixing religion with politics."

Ironically, Judaism is actually a Theocratic religion. It is so Theocratic that there is no word for "religion" as a separate aspect of life. Jewish law regulates everything in life. To present the position of Voltaire as though it were the immemorlal Jewish position is disgusting.

BTW--since the ADL opposes civil law based on religion, I suppose they are also opposed to laws against murder? Can't have those Theocratic laws burdening "free men," now, can we?

And I’m a meshugganah shikseh who thinks that no one should be called a Jew who doesn’t think the same of the Torah as people like yourself! I loathe the secular atheists who dredge up their Jewish ancestry when it’s convenient for them (meaning when they want to deflect criticism) and then they’ll turn around and immediately deny that same faith the first chance they get.

May your testimony bring blessings upon you and your house!

I think for now we are not going to see gay marriage in Florida . Our requirement of 60% of the vote to pass an amendment is not going to make it easy to pass at least for right now but things are changing really fast .

You are not quite right thou about the Nazis . They did promote homosexuals , the SS was full of homosexuals and pedophiles . Hitler and the Nazis did rewrite the bible and there were plenty of people who were ignorant to what was written in it who did not notice and followed along .

As a very conservative evangelical Christian I will sadly tell you that we are loosing and have mostly lost the young people . Evangelical churches are being infiltrated by the left and their people are becoming totally ignorant as to what is written in the bible . They are evangelical in name only now ... basically cultural evangelical and not much of anything else which means they will not be able to stand for anything soon

I couldn't agree more. This is Orwellian doublethink at best, social engineering with a dose of power grab at worst. And yet, the so-called defenders of the world's oldest monotheistic religion doesn't see it that way. Sad, isn't it ?

Of all the groups that came after my GPAC just out of the box...it was the ADL. I discovered that googling the name of my PAC to see what came up...hate group. A petition campaign going after illegal immigration. I just started laughing. What a FREAK SHOW they are!

And besides, the term “marriage equality” is term right out of Orwell’s Newspeak Dictionary. Marriage is one thing and one thing only, a union between one man and one woman. There is no other reason for the word “marriage” in this context other than to bring together the two sexes for the propagation of the human race. This was God’s plan. And as it was written, “What God has joined together, let no man put asunder.”

You CAN’T be so naive as to think “gay marriage” will not -— DOES not -— legally mandate that ALL boundaries as to who or what may ‘marry’ be permitted to do so. The ONLY “line in the sand’ that was and is legally defensible is “one man + one woman”. The instant that line is erased, no other line can be drawn (legally) that will withstand a court challenge. The first next prohibition to crumble will most likely be polygamy, as supporters of that notion are already gearing up. Thereafter, in some order, incest will go down, age limits will at least radically change, and without a doubt ‘bestiality’ will have to be embraced (in fact, “marrying” inanimate objects - car, vacuum cleaner, etc - are almost guaranteed at some point. “Marriage”, as an institution, will become meaningless. That is simply a legal essential if “1 M + 1 W” is erased.

I live in the Socialist Wonderland known as Broward County, Florida. Almost every Jew that I know thinks I’m some sort of reject because I have no desire whatsoever to build pyramids for progressivik pharoahs. I stopped attending synagogue around here a long time ago. Almost every rabbi around here is a flaming liberal and they don’t leave it outside the pulpit.

The last time I attended Friday night services, many moons ago, the rabbi started venting against Conservatives and what terrible man Newt Gingrich was and how the impeachment of Bill Caligula was some sort of insult to Judaism, or some other nonsense. I knew that the other synagogues in the area are no better, so I stopped going.

While we’re on the subject, since when did opposing illegal immigration constitute “hate” ? The term “illegal aliens” doesn’t refer to any ethnic group, it refers to dirt bags who could care less about the sovereignty of the United States. That’s not hate, that’s patriotism.

Illegal aliens are criminals, period. I don’t care if they’re from Mexico, Canada, Israel, or South Africa. Illegal means “wrong” and “against the law” last time I checked.

“As a very conservative evangelical Christian I will sadly tell you that we are loosing and have mostly lost the young people . Evangelical churches are being infiltrated by the left and their people are becoming totally ignorant as to what is written in the bible .

Very true. See Jim Wallis and his Sojourners cult. The Catholic Church has the same problem with leftist infiltration as well. (the so-called “Nuns on a Bus”)

What people of faith need to do is tackle the problem head on. If your rabbi, priest, or pastor starts spouting off leftist drivel, simply get up and walk out and find another place to worship. I know that’s easier said than done, and I know that the guilt is immense (I struggle with it every day), but I feel it’s the only way to get through to those who are still willing to listen to reason.

“New York, NY, June 5, 2013 The Anti-Defamation League (ADL) today welcomed President Obamas nomination of Samantha Power to serve as U.S. Ambassador to the United Nations.

Barry Curtiss-Lusher, ADL National Chair, and Abraham H. Foxman, ADL National Director, issued the following statement:

‘We are pleased that President Obama has nominated a true champion of human rights who led the effort to make averting genocide and atrocities a core part of American policy to head the U.S. delegation at the United Nations.

As the world is sickened by the images of slaughter in Syria and as Israel faces an ever more volatile Middle East, we are heartened that the U.S. will be represented by an individual whose moral resolve and fierce pragmatism will serve our country well.

As head of President Obamas multilateral affairs efforts, Samantha engaged in an all-hands-on-deck U.S. campaign against Palestinian unilateral efforts in the U.N. to circumvent peace negotiations. She experienced first-hand the hostility faced by Israel and the abuse of the U.N. bodies to promote anti-Israel bias. As someone who appreciates, to the core of her being, the meaning of international human rights mechanisms, Samantha is clear eyed and understands the injustice of their abuse to target Israels legitimacy.’ “

“Power, nominated Wednesday to replace Susan Rice as the US ambassador to the UN, has been an outspoken advocate of intervention to protect human rights, and in 2002 was asked to apply that stance to the Israeli-Palestinian conflict, then in the throes of the second intifada.

‘It may more crucially mean sacrificing or investing I think more than sacrificing literally billions of dollars not in servicing Israelis military, but actually in investing in the new state of Palestine,’ Power said during a talk at the University of California-Berkeley. ‘In investing billions of dollars it would probably take also to support I think what will have to be a mammoth a protection force.’ “
